    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't even know where to start... How in the world could Naughty Dog so thoroughly destroy some of the most beloved video game characters of all time? Killing Joel in the way that they did was an absolute disgrace to his character and spit in the face of the fans. Then being FORCED to play as his murderer for HOURS while they poorly try to make her out to be a sympathetic character is insane. I felt no sympathy for Abby or her friends and all I wanted to do was slay all of them in the most brutal fashion possible the entire game. I didn't think it was possible to so thoroughly destroy everything I loved about the first game, but Naughty Dog/Neil Druckmann managed to pull that off in a spectacular fashion. If you are a fan of the first game like I am, then please for the love of God DO NOT BUY THIS GAME... Don't even watch a play through on Youtube. I wish I could erase the story of this game from my mind and just keep the memory of the first game alive and well. This is not even hyperbole, the story is that horrifically bad IMO. I could go on for hours about the faults with the story in this game but I'll leave at that for now. I'll give it two points for amazing graphics, environments, great voice acting, and decent game play, but minus 8 for horrific writing. 2/10... Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story is extremely poor compared to the first part. It would make more sense if Ellie and Abby would turn out to be sisters. -if of course they could find a way to connect the dr. as their father which was killed by Joel- but it would be justifiable for why Ellie just couldn't kill Abby at the end. But instead we get a sequel that makes no sense other than annoy it's fans story-wise and completely ignore customer expectations. You build a single game to sell, but if you build a universe and want it to be consistent you should be listening to your customer-base and not bash them with extremely irrational and childish responses on social media or try to cut them off to react the way they want with their opinions.

    I'm not going to go into the ins and outs of the faults of this game as I would be here all night but I would first like to state that this is not about the fate of the main characters, that is the story tellers decision, not the players.

I do however want to say that on the other side of the coin that if I go and see a 90 minute James Bond movie I don't expect to be forced to sit through 70 minutes of Dr No and his chums. To be fair though (like many of you) I was going to buy this game no matter what. I was looking forward to it and somewhere along the line I got swept away with the advertising, all be it in hindsight false advertising. Never again, I have learnt my lesson. The last time I felt this cheated was when I bought Dragons Lair for the spectrum 48k, it was nothing like the arcade version (and never could be) but advertised as if it was. You tube them, you will see what I mean. In conclusion, I dont mind a game that is not my cup of tea but please dont lie to me in order to increase sales. Expand

    Actually my note would be a 7 out of 10 but it is not correct, the game takes you from one side to the other. You have to understand that humanity is always disgusting for it "Truth Is Stronger Than Fiction" and although this closely resembles Reality does not leave it for you or me, it has several flaws in empathy towards the characters.

    You shouldn't have fun watching a not post apocalyptic world where is more important not surviving but having a character bald is the priority.

Another gripe I have is that this game takes an absurdly short time to complete. About 22 hours. That just isn’t worth it for me. $60 for 22 hours of cutscenes and a minuscule amount of game? And this isn’t the type of game with replay value; you’re only going through it once. That’s pretty much how I felt finishing the game. I kind of want a refund. Expand

    This game has a lot of bugs. You would think with how long it has been in development they would have worked out all of these bugs and the gameplay mechanics would be fluid.

It doesn't seem like the gameplay is all that different for the first version of the game. Overall the graphics and breathtaking landscapes/environment are probably the only saving grace of this game. Make no mistake this is more of a media creation riddled with cutscenes rather than a true game. Many parts are just quicktime events with button mashing.

    This brings us to the worst part of the game. The entire story is unbelievable. Even if you ignore the "woke" elements being pushed by Naughty Dog it still does not make much sense. If you are expecting a carefully crafted story with believable characters be prepared to be disappointed. The entire storyline is like some sort of fanfiction or comic book like story arcs with supervillains.

    Overall, this game deserves less than 1 it simply does not reward the player with believable characters or satisfying gameplay. Even ignoring any story elements one cannot see much improvement in gameplay since last of us 1. When you are paying $60 for a brand new flagship Sony Game you expect that the gameplay will introduce new satisfying elements but Naughty Dog falls short. Lastly, it seems the creative direction of this game was a lot more influential in including many cutscenes rather than improving gameplay mechanics.

Your forced to play as a character most fans of the series arent going to like. The last of us was one of my favorite games ever. The last of us part 2 is a dumpster fire. As a longtime fan i am incredibly disappointed. Expand

    I can’t rate ND games like any other games where i will try to isolate graphics, story and gameplay because ND is a linear story driven game so no matter how it looks which is absolutely awesome or how enjoyable the gameplay is which is fine it, but in the end it’s all about the story and this story unlike any other game from ND is bad, lazy without any character building. Some events took place too fast it destroyed any chance to sympathize with certain characters. Some decisions was taken by every character in the game that doesn’t make sense and just felt like the writer couldn’t write anything creative after the 17 minute point. In a game focused on the story of such characters and the development of said characters I can’t get why the writers decide to take this course. The game is a slap in the face of every naughty dog fan, instead of giving us an understandable meaningful well written story, they just gave us a cliché revenge is bad story and contradict themselves by saying bad deeds goes undone while claiming in a post apocalyptic world there is no justice.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Este juego es una completa decepcion, por su historia, trama y guión, primero porque su historia es completamente estúpida y sin sentido, además de que Ellie mató a los cómplices de la muerte joel excepto a abby, y matara a cientas de personas que no le hicieron tanto daño y después al final no matara a abby, que tonto, su trama es demasiado flojo y absurdo como por ejemplo como joel se confíe de personas y que además que en el 1er juego, el ni era asi, es demasiado absurdo, y su guión es demasiado forzado, sobre todo en el personaje abby que es una chica que parece chico y que además es la que mata a joel, la asesina de joel y que después al final no la mata ellie por lo que se puede deducir que las personas o feministas LGBT meterion mano, pero no es por ser homofobo aunque eso nisiquiera existe, además que se puede argumentoar por qje ellie mata a todos los cómplices excepto a abby, ven lo que pasa.

    Lo bueno es que sus gráficos son demasiado buenos, y su jugabilidad es excelente, si tu buscas un juego con gráficos y jugabilidad excelentes, este es el que buscas, pero si buscas un juego con excelente historia, trama y guión este no es el que buscas, nisiquiera lo compres.

    En fin este juego, es una completa decepcion, una traición a la saga, una traición a los fans, una traición a naugthy dog.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 4 because the story line was so bad. Being forced to play Abby half the game made the play threw not fun at all. They killed off a beloved character Joel so early. When I got this game i was wanting to see the story of him and Ellie. I wanted to play as Joel. The flash backs made the game that much more sad. And also made me not want to play the game. I mean I waited 7 years. They advertised the game one way and gave us something compleatly different. The sad part about this all is because people are having these issues we have been called bigots and sexiest by the creators. So that really is a slap in the face for people like me who loved and supported them with the first game. I loved Ellie too in the first game because they did bring in a gay character so, that was awesome. She was witty and loveable. And her and Joel's relationship growing in that daughter and father dual was amazing. But this Ellie in the last of us 2 is nothing at all like the same from the first game.. I get people change in 4 years.. But it almost seems like the women rights agenda was so heavily shoved into this game. It had me rolling my eyes, because the amount of put down and demonizing of male roles in this game, to get their point across was disgusting. To me that's just as bad as shaming women. Just because they are men doesnt mean it doesn't count. Just like with Joel and Tommy they made them compleatly unlike their characters from the first game. Which put Joel in the situation that got him killed. It doesnt make any since. To me it had to have a good story. And this was far from anything close to the first. Plus you don't even get revenge. You go threw the whole game for literally nothing. Ellie gets nothing. A huge part of me just didn't care about it anymore because I hated the story line that much. The first 2 hours reminded me of the last of us. I waited 7 years for 2 hours. I paid 60+ for this game and played it and pretty much hated like 97 percent of the time. Its just disappointing. I want to give it lower then a 4. But the graphics were amazing. They did a amazing job on that. The A.I. was a little weired alot of the time but I saw some improvement. Don't like the fact their is alot of dog killing. In most situations unavoidable. But that's whatever, it wasnt a make it or break it for me like the storyline was. But i can see how it could be for some. I just wish it was different.100% would not play again. After all this craziness.. I really don't trust naughty dog and wont for future content. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First off not a "BOT"

    Okay here is my review of TLOU2.

    Gameplay:
    Play's Similar to the first game with some new extended Options to it such as Jumping and crawling, Yet for me it feels sort of slippery and not as fluid as the first game.Also it is more a movie then it is a game which can be good or bad,In this case it was bad, I like Interactive games such as the Walking dead ones, But this game is really just like watching a long movie with very little gameplay.
    When it does Click back into gameplay the enemies do vary and can show some smarts, But I also seen many AI in my gameplay that were dumb.

    Graphics:Naughty Dog I will give props where due, This game is Beautiful,The world feels Alive, Colors can be both stunning and depressing"In a good way", The details in the faces are spot on with real life.

    Sound:
    Hit or miss for me, Some things sound good while others sound odd to me, Such as some of the voice acting, Most hit the marks with what lines they are given, And a few others sound like they phoned it in and wanted to walk away from the script.

    Story:
    This story is a mess, They take everything good from number one and ruin it with this one, I still like Ellie as I did in the first game, But Joel when he was Present he feels "Off", He does not seem like the same guy we grew to know from the first game, I do not mind the story moving forward, But this game seems like they Erased the first one and wanted to start over with new leads.
    It's a story about hate and revenge yet by the conclusion it is not even that, It leads up to nothing happening besides them all walking away!

    Conclusion:
    They had a chance to really make a mark with this game but they blew it really in every way, Not worth the price, If you can I say wait for a price cut or buy it used.

    The story is not well made and this is where people are having trouble. Joel's character was beloved by so many people and was killed like John Connor in Terminator Dark Fate. I avoided spoilers and didnt believe them when people were saying that this happens with Joel. The game play and tense moments are amazing! The story is 3 though.

    I absolutely loved the original game, having played through it too many times to count, including numerous times on Grounded Mode. It seems to me that a lot of the backlash for this current title may be rooted in the expectations players have had, especially those regarding the direction they've thought the story might or should take. But if one lets go of those expectations, there's a lot here to appreciate.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I just finished this abomination and created this account to join in adding my voice to the rest of the fans of the previous game who feel aggrieved and let down by Naughty Dog. What on earth were they thinking? Didn't they actually play the last game? I'm asking Naughty Dog for my money back. The story plainly is awful; Joel's early demise is handled without respect for the history we as the gamer have had with him. Is it simply a poor copy of the "Sarah" moment from TLOU for the sake of an early shock to roll the opening credits to? The characters just don't capture that great chemistry that Joel & Ellie had from TLOU, Dina & Ellie just don't have it, their story / interactions were just boring or annoying and felt more like pushing an agenda rather than making or developing a story. Ellie & Riley from the Left Behind DLC were much better. However, their dull contributions cause nowhere near as much grief as the proverbial knife in the back from Naughty Dog in forcing us to play half the game as Abby, Joel's killer. This is a character that has no redeeming qualities or interest to me whatsoever. I feel bad for all the animators and mo-cap artists whose work I didn't see because I skipped her cut scenes at every opportunity I could in order to get to the end of her appearances; I just didn't care less what happened to her and I often fed her to the infected or threw her off tall buildings in the hope that it would enact some kind of digital voodoo to give the writers violent diarrhoea of an equally appropriate level. I cannot believe I waited seven years for this. I don't buy Joel getting caught by a group of well armed strangers given his experience of years as a smuggler and even sometime hunter and I don't buy Ellie wading through dozens of killings (of other people) to meet her nemesis (twice!) only to let her go after realising "killing bad" without any kind of communication or resolution other than more fighting. It just doesn't make sense - its a triple kick in the teeth - Joel's death, Awful Abby and Ellie's Revenge that wasn't. This is not a worthy sequel, its not even a funny parody. Expand

Про сюжет нет смысла говорить, абсолютно банальный, пресный и скучный сюжет Совместно с максимально затянутым геймплеем игра надоедает, игру дропают на более простые уровни сложности просто что бы добежать. Смысл первой части аннулировали полностью. Ждать от нее продолжения той красивой и доброй истории что была в первой части в корне не верно. Игра не затянула, игра уныла, то что все говорят о деталях, по-моему полнейший бред. Игра не заслуживает внимания.

    Логики в игре нет, крайне много раздражающих моментов в которых нет логики. Никаких изменений в мире за это время. Придираться можно бесконечно.

    Видимо игра не для таких как все.

The movie left out a few things and changed a few others... I was in an emotional turmoil leaving the theatre when a friend ask me; so what do you think? What’s the score? I gave it first a 7. He quickly responded “ have you ever seen a better film?” At that point I realised I gave it a score based on what I thought the movie was going to be like .. not how or what is actually was... of course I answered “no”. And gave it a 10.

    Same thing with this game. As a Huge fan of the first game I had a ton of expectations about the game And thoughts how it was going to play out. Did it play out the way I thought it would? No! Did it make the game worse because of that? Absolutely no! Was I heartbroken by the end ? Yes! Were my emotions going hay wire? Yes! Have Any game ever affected me like this one emotionally ? Never! Graphics better? Few! Game play as good? Few!
    And Finally! Even though it didn’t play out as I thought it would! Have I ever played a better game taking all aspects of gaming into consideration? Hell no! Have I ever scored any game with a 10? No. It this a first? Yes! It’s a master piece....

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I will start with the good parts:
    + Sound design - especially when modifying your weapon the details matter.
    + Level design - some really astonishing game design, especially in the aquarium.
    + The "back in time" missions with Joel and Ellie.

    Then, what I absolutely hated about the game:
    - Killing main character based on choices he wouldnt make in the first place. 0 logic there.
    - Abby!!! I honestly felt disgusted playing this character. I had to motivate myself extremely to play as her. There is absolutely nothing to like about her. - Also the whole buffed body doesn't make any sense... Women apparently didn't have any time to shave their armpits, but they do have time to consume steroids. Yeah, makes sense... It felt too forced, but since Abby had to lift **** move **** carry **** and needed to be a woman, oh...lets make her then unrealisticly strong as hell.
    - The storyline. It felt I was playing a political agenda. This was making the game almost impossible to enjoy. I don't want you to force your thoughts on me, eventhough we may think the same.
    - The ending. The last mission made 0 sense. I think it perfectly resembles how the director had no idea what the previous game made it so good.

    In conclusion, I will never forgive Naughty Dog for screwing up such a great game and potential. Please never make a 3rd one.
